Social Text Review

Employees chime in and ask for feedback ...this in turns helps management to make an executive decision about when to roll out the product.

Good product overall but some features do need an upgrade
Socialtext was used as an information repository or a pseudo Content Management System. It was mostly curated by the Product Management team but used all across the company. Different departments including support, and product development also used it but not as extensive as the PM team.
We had 2 versions of socialtext (Internal and External) - You can create private or public workspaces in socialtext. We used the external workspace as our knowledge base and was the to go place for any of our client and employees to learn more about the product features. The internal workspace helped us collaborate on a specific project or a feature. I used the wiki to do a lot of requirements gathering.

- Version history - Always keeps the edited versions and one can revert back any time
- Creating and Editing an article is very easy and intutive
- Sharing the articles with peers
- Search needs a ton of improvements. It was very slow a year ago
- Search result quality was also not that good
- I know they have improved their UI recently but when i used it last year it did not really have any design elements which could be used to make the articles look more presentable. It was important for us as we used it for external communication as well.
